About the Event
A walking tour of downtown Coral Gables, discussing the architectural evolution of the City’s Business District, from some of Merrick’s original intentions through its evolution to our modern city center, including a brief introduction of Coral Gables’ history. It will extend through the downtown area culminating at City Hall.
The 90-minute tour will meet in front of the Coral Gables Chamber of Commerce at 201 Alhambra Circle at 10:00 am sharp. Since the tour is all outside, we recommend you bring your own water bottle and dress in light clothes with comfortable shoes and a hat.
